We're gearing up for Houston Hackathon 2026!! We'd love to have you with us!
The Houston Hackathon is an opportunity for people with different skills to collaborate on projects to improve life in Houston.
Impact Hub Houston envisions a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable economy, where people are empowered with the skills, capacity, and resources they need to take action. We invite you to be a part of this vision by participating in this annual opportunity to develop systemic and transformative solutions for Houston – solutions that are rooted in local communities so that they are as diverse as Houston, and work for ALL of Houston.
Why Join a Hackathon?
To make a difference in their community
To learn new skills or work on real problems
To meet other cool people who care about the same things
To turn ideas into action in just a weekend
To collaborate with local government, nonprofits, and startups
To challenge themselves and think creatively
And for a lot of people, it’s just fun! Like summer camp for ideas and action.
We invite all people who want to make a difference in our region to join us at the annual Houston Hackathon! This is a “civic” hackathon, focused on ideating, designing, and developing both policy-based and tech solutions to some of Houston’s greatest challenges. Project stakeholders will be there from the city, county, local organizations, and Houston’s impact community!
Please sign-up here to receive direct communication for this year’s event.

Are you working on a solution or startup that creates positive impact in our community? Then you have a standing invitation to join Impact Hub Houston at our monthly Community. Connection. meetup — a HUMAN-centered space to step away from the grind and into community with fellow impact-driven founders.
Between the pitches, the pivots, and the pressure to always have it together, it’s easy to forget that the most valuable resource we have is each other. That’s why we created Community. Connection. — a judgment-free zone that reminds you community isn’t just a nice-to-have — it’s essential. Whether you need to reflect, reconnect, recharge, or simply remember that you’re not alone, join us for a moment where you can stop performing and simply BE.
Come as you are, with whatever joys, challenges, or questions you’re facing right now. Celebrating a breakthrough? Navigating uncertainty? Feeling stuck or burned out? All of it is welcome here. Just bring your authentic self and a willingness to listen, share, and be present with others who understand the unique challenges and rewards of building something meaningful.
Community. Connection.Show up, share out, and shine on!
This session will be facilitated by IHH Team + Community Member Tracie Jae, The Quiet Rebel.
